A regurgitação tricúspide (RT) importante está associada à alta morbidade e mortalidade. Como o tratamento cirúrgico da RT isolada tem sido associado à alta mortalidade, as intervenções transcateter na valva tricúspide (VT) têm sido utilizadas para o seu tratamento, com risco relativamente mais baixo. Há um atraso na intervenção da RT e provavelmente está relacionado a uma compreensão limitada da anatomia da VT e do ventrículo direito, além da subestimação da gravidade da RT. Nesse cenário, faz-se necessário o conhecimento anatômico abrangente da VT, a fisiopatologia envolvida no mecanismo de regurgitação, assim como a sua graduação mais precisa. A VT tem peculiaridades anatômica, histológica e espacial que fazem a sua avalição ser mais complexa, quando comparado à valva mitral, sendo necessário o conhecimento e treinamento nas diversas técnicas ecocardiográficas que serão utilizadas frequentemente em combinação para uma avaliação precisa. Esta revisão descreverá a anatomia da VT, o papel do ecocardiograma no diagnóstico, graduação e fisiopatologia envolvida na RT, as principais opções atuais de tratamento transcateter da RT e a avaliação do resultado após intervenção transcateter por meio de múltiplas modalidades ecocardiográficas.(AU)
Severe tricuspid regurgitation (TR) is associated with high morbidity and mortality. Given that surgical treatment of TR alone has been associated with high mortality, transcatheter interventions in the tricuspid valve (TV) have been used for its treatment, with relatively lower risk. There is a delay in intervention for TR, and this is probably related to a limited understanding of the anatomy of the TV and the right ventricle, in addition to an underestimation of the severity of TR. In this scenario, it is necessary to have comprehensive anatomical knowledge of the TV, the pathophysiology involved in the mechanism of regurgitation, and more accurate grading. The TV has anatomical, histological, and spatial peculiarities that make its assessment more complex when compared to the mitral valve, requiring knowledge and training in the various echocardiographic techniques that will often be used in combination for accurate assessment. This review will describe the anatomy of the TV, the role of echocardiography in the diagnosis, grading, and pathophysiology involved in TR; the main transcatheter treatment options currently available for TR; and the assessment of outcomes after transcatheter intervention by means of multiple echocardiographic modalities.(AU)

ANTECEDENTES: El reemplazo protésico de la válvula tricúspide es un procedimiento infrecuente, con elevada mortalidad y morbilidad operatoria, independientemente de la etiología de la insuficiencia tricuspídea. Persiste aún una discusión respecto al tipo de prótesis a utilizar, mecánica o biológica. OBJETIVO: Analizar nuestros resultados perioperatorios y alejados en el reemplazo valvular tricuspídeo, comparando ambos tipos de prótesis. MÉTODO: Revisión de la Base de Datos de nuestro Servicio de Cirugía Cardiovascular para el periodo enero 1991 - diciembre 2017. Identificados los pacientes con reemplazo valvular tricuspídeo (RVT); se revisaron los protocolos operatorios y los ecocardiogramas. La supervivencia se certificó a través del Registro Civil e Identificación de Chile. RESULTADOS: Se identificaron 83 pacientes con RVT (76% mujeres), los que representaron el 0,7% del total de las cirugías con circulación extracorpórea y el 2,1% de las cirugías valvulares para el periodo en estudio. La edad promedio fue 49±16,5 años. Cuarenta y nueve casos (59%) correspondieron a reoperaciones y otros 49 tuvieron un procedimiento asociado. En 40 pacientes (48%) se utilizó una prótesis mecánica y en 43 (52%) una biológica. La mortalidad operatoria global fue 9,6% (8 pacientes, 4 con una prótesis mecánica y 4 con una biológica). El seguimiento se completó en el 100%, con un promedio de 7,1 años. Veintiocho pacientes fallecieron durante el seguimiento; la principal causa fue insuficiencia cardiaca. Así, la supervivencia a 5 años fue 70,3 ± 5,3% y a 10 años 58 ± 6,3%, sin diferencia significativa entre ambos tipos de prótesis. Siete pacientes se reoperaron durante el seguimiento (5 casos con prótesis biológica y 2 mecánica). CONCLUSIÓN: El RVT continúa siendo un procedimiento infrecuente, con mayor incidencia en mujeres, en la quinta década de la vida. La mayoría de los pacientes presentaba comorbilidad y había tenido cirugía cardiovascular previa. La mitad de estos recibió una prótesis mecánica y la otra, biológica. No hubo diferencias significativas entre ambos tipos de prótesis en cuanto a mortalidad operatoria, supervivencia alejada o reoperación.
BACKGROUND: Tricuspid valve replacement (TVR) is an uncommon surgical procedure, associated with high mortality and morbidity. The use of biological or mechanical prostheses in TVR has advantages and disadvantages and, therefore, there persists a debate regarding the choice of one or other type of prostheses. AIM: To analyze our operative and long-term surgical results, comparing both types of prosthetic valves. METHODS: The Data Base of the Cardiovascular Surgery Service was reviewed for the period between January 1991 and December 2017. 83 patients with TVR were identified, the operative notes and echocardiogram reports were analyzed. Survival was obtained from the Chilean Civil Identification Service. RESULTS: 83 patients (76% women) had TVR. They represented 0.7% of the total cases operated on with extracorporeal circulation and 2.1% of all valve disease cases, for the study period. Mean age was 49±16.5 years. 49 cases (59%) were reoperations and another 49 had an associated procedure. In 40 patients (48%) a mechanical prosthesis was used and in 43 (52%) a biological one was implanted. Operative mortality rate was 9.6% (8 patients, had a mechanical valve and the other 8, a biological one). Follow-up was 100% completed, with an average of 7.1 years. 28 patients died during follow-up; the main cause of death was heart failure. Five-year survival rate was 70.3 ± 5.3% and at 10 years it was 58 ± 6.3%, without significant difference the type of prostheses. Seven patients were re-operated during follow-up (5 cases corresponded to a biological prostheses and 2 to a mechanical one). CONCLUSION: TVR is still an infrequent surgical procedure, more commonly performed in women, on the fifth decade of life. Most patients presented comorbidities and had a previous cardiovascular surgical operation. Half of them received a mechanical prosthesis and half a biological one. There was no significant difference between both types of prostheses related to surgical mortality, long-term survival or reoperation.

Resumen Antecedentes la reparación de la insuficiencia tricuspídea funcional está indicada en casos de insuficiencia cardíaca, generalmente, asociada a enfermedades de las válvulas cardíacas izquierdas y en algunos casos de enfermedad coronaria o cardiopatías congénitas. Objetivo : evaluar los resultados a largo plazo de la reparación tricuspídea en pacientes operados en la región centro sur de Chile. Pacientes y métodos : estudio retrospectivo de registros clínicos y operatorios en 114 pacientes con edad promedio 57.8 (DE 13) años (72 mujeres) sometidos a reparación tricuspídea asociada a otros procedimientos quirúrgicos entre 2009 y 2017. Resultados : la etiología de la insuficiencia tricuspídea fue debida a enfermedad reumática inactiva en 45% y a endocarditis infecciosa en 2.6%. 63% estaban en fibrilación auricular y 75% en capacidad funcional NYHC III. 15.8% tenían cirugía valvular cardíaca previa. El ecocardiograma mostró insuficiencia severa en 56% de los casos y había hipertensión pulmonar severa en 39.5%. La cirugía consistió en la implantación de un anillo semi-rígido en forma concomitante a reemplazo o reparación de lesión valvular mitral, reemplazo valvular aórtico, cierre de comunicación interauricular, cirugía coronaria o resección de tumor intra cardíaco. La mortalidad post operatoria global fue 16%, debido a falla multisistémica en 6%, insuficiencia cardíaca en 5% y hemorragia cerebral en 4.3%. El seguimiento promedio fue 78.8 (DS 7.2) meses. La supervivencia actuarial fue 74% a los 60 y 68% a los 96 meses. Conclusión : La cirugía de reparación de la insuficiencia tricuspídea moderada o severa, asociada a otras enfermedades cardíacas provee una buena recuperación sintomática, con excelente sobrevida alejada.
Abstract Background : Surgery for functional tricuspid valve insufficiency is indicated in cases of congestive heart failure usually associated to left heart valve diseases or as a concomitant surgery for other causes such as congenital or coronary disease. Aim : To assess and report the long-term results of tricuspid valve repair in adult patients in a regional cardiac surgery center in south Chile. Patients and Methods : Retrospective review of clinical and operative records of 114 patients aged 57.8 +/- 13 years (72 women) subjected to tricuspid reparative surgery concomitant with other cardiac procedures between 2009 to 2017. Results : In 45% of cases etiology was due to inactive rheumatic disease and 2.6% was due to endocarditis. 63% presented with atrial fibrillation and 75% were in NYHC CFIII. 15.8% had a previous cardiac valve surgery. Preoperative echocardiography showed severe tricuspid insufficiency in 56% of cases and pulmonary hypertension was severe in 39.5%. In all cases tricuspid repair was performed through the insertion of a semi rigid ring as a concomitant procedure for mitral repair/replacement in most cases, aortic valve replacement, surgical closure of an ASD, CABG surgery and the resection of cardiac tumors. Overall postoperative mortality was 16% due to multi-organic dysfunction in 6%, cardiac failure in 5% and cerebral hemorrhage in 4.3%. Mean long term follow up was 78.8+/- 7.2 months. Actuarial survival was 74% at 60 and 68% at 96 months. Conclusion: Surgical tricuspid valve repair for moderate to severe tricuspid insufficiency isolated or associated to other cardiac diseases provides a good symptomatic recovery, with an excellent long term survival.
